About this event

Any sound can be used as an emotional barometer of time and place. This virtual master class by Kristel Jax embraces limitation and chance to demonstrate the endless potential found in asking an environment what it requires to be heard. Students will use smartphones or other personal handheld portable recorders together with objects of their choosing in and around their own homes to record sound, then mix, manipulate, and collage their recordings in Ableton to create an original composition that reflects on the time and place it was recorded. Ultimately, each participant will explore how to use new listening skills in their own practices.

The first session Time, Place, and Chance teaches students to tune into their environment to create works of music and audio art. Students will select an object from which to make sound and learn how to access the full potential of that sound maker as it exists in the moment. The final half of the class will be spent by class attendees making original sound recordings in their home.

The second session Making Experimental Soundscapes will allow students to craft their audio recordings into original experimental compositions which convey an intended or intuitive emotion/narrative. Students will learn the basics of Ableton including importing files, cutting and splicing, collage, looping, time and pitch manipulation, audio effects, and more. The class will end with a virtual composition listening party and group discussion on making the most of one’s environment by listening and “tuning in.”
